When I say, "Hi,"
You'll say, "Hello"
For I want you to know—
That I need to fulfill my guised role.

When I say, "How are you?"
You'll say, "I'm good"
And if you're not, I'll make you—
For that smile of yours will protrude.

When I say, "Come with me!"
You'll say, "Sure!"
And if you wouldn't comply—
I'm sorry, but I'll be the prominent rule.

You'll say I'm too stubborn; you'll say I'm selfish,
Yet if you'll ignore me, most predicaments will turn more fiendish
So when I say "See you again," I didn't mean goodbye—

Let's meet up again, and have it another try!
